The defeat of Li Zicheng's main force made the Dashun army stationed in Tianjin Wei stunned, but also panicked.

In everyone's opinion, it is logical and sure that Dashun will replace this decaying Ming Dynasty.

But the reality gave everyone a big slap in the face, the Dashun army, which had always been soaring, was defeated, and it was a mess of defeat, a defeat, and the kind that could not be defeated again.

Li Zicheng, the emperor of the Great Shun Kingdom, fled for his life, and the civil and military ministers of the Great Shun Kingdom, who had a little weight, were either killed, captured, or their whereabouts unknown.

One bad news after another came, which made the morale of the defenders of Tianjin Wei continue to decline.

Soldiers have already begun to desert, and people are constantly fleeing. First one or two, then a dozen, finally dozens, hundreds, and finally even a battalion of soldiers fled en masse.

Except for the thousands of old battalion soldiers under the guard general Liu Fangliang, the rest of these defenders were all exiles who were coerced or surrendered Ming troops, and they had no combat effectiveness at all.

Not only did these soldiers begin to flee, but some of them also set their sights on the goods and materials that the Dashun army had stationed in the Tianjin Acropolis.

If Liu Fangliang hadn't seen the opportunity early and sent his deputy general to personally guard the dock, those rebellious soldiers would have been successful a long time ago.

After a battle between the two sides, the rebels were unable to succeed and finally retreated.

Now Li Zicheng's life and death are unknown, and other civil and military ministers can't count on it, although Liu Fangliang has been encouraging the soldiers on his face, saying that the Dashun Emperor Li Zicheng is safe and sound, and he will fight back with the Western Route Army in two days, so he has temporarily stabilized the situation and not made the situation more erosive.

But he was already worried in his heart.

If he were to speak, he would be easy to speak. It's just that in addition to a large number of grain, grass, materials and goods in this city, there are also the queen mother Gao of the Dashun Kingdom, and the families of other generals.

He can't ignore any of these goods and people, if something goes wrong, he won't be able to explain it to Li Zicheng in the future.

On the one hand, Liu Fangliang sent people everywhere to suppress the rebels and guard the city gates, and on the other hand, he was anxiously thinking about this way out in his own way.

What he is most worried about now is Li Zicheng's life or death.

If Li Zicheng died, it would be meaningless for him to resist any longer. can only take advantage of the fact that the Jiang family army outside the city has not yet started to attack, and first escort the queen Gao and others to escape.

If Li Zicheng is still alive, then he will have the need to stick to it. He knew that Li Zicheng had a deep affection for the Gao family, and he would never easily leave so much money.

As long as he can hold out for a few days, he may be able to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

However, the key question now is whether Li Zicheng is alive or dead?

No one could answer this question to him.

At this moment, a personal soldier came in and said urgently: "General, the queen mother is here." ”

Liu Fangliang was startled, knowing that it was Li Zicheng's wife Gao, who came, and hurriedly led someone out to greet him.

He knew that Gao must have come here to ask him about his countermeasures.

Although Gao is a woman, she is known as a female Zhuge and has always been smart and shrewd, and even Li Zicheng will ask her opinion when there are many things that are difficult to decide.

Therefore, the civil and military ministers of Dashun still admire this queen mother.

Before Liu Fangliang reached the gate, he saw a group of people hurrying over. He was startled when he saw how these people were dressed.

The woman who walked in the front was Gao, although she was not tall, her eyebrows and eyes were indeed a little beautiful. And there are three points of heroism and a domineering in the temperament.

She is not wearing the queen's phoenix crown at the moment, nor is she wearing the clothes of an ordinary noblewoman, and she is dressed in a military uniform, with a helmet and armor, and a sword in her hand, living the image of a female general.

The group of entourages behind her were also a group of female soldiers who were also wearing armor, all dressed as heroines, and Liu Fangliang was shocked when she saw it.

One of the most striking of these retinues was a tall and heroic young woman behind Gao, dressed in a bright red power suit, carrying a long sword in her hand, and wearing a hat.

This is naturally the general under Li Zicheng, and now Li Yan's wife Red Lady, who is unconscious and has fallen into the hands of Jiang Chuan, the strange woman whose real name is Cui Yingying.

In other words, the Red Lady turned out to be a woman who ran the rivers and lakes to perform her arts. Later, because he couldn't bear to be oppressed by the rich and noble, he took a few people up the mountain and fell into the grass.

Because she is bold by nature, righteous and righteous, specializing in killing and robbing those big officials, robbing the rich and helping the poor, so she is quite famous among the local poor people.

Later, Li Yan led the troops to pass by, learned about the deeds of the Red Lady, and sent someone to recruit him, and the Red Lady fell in love with Li Yan at first sight, so she took people to return to the Dashun Army, and followed Li Yan to fight the world for Li Zicheng.

The red lady is strong in martial arts, and she is bold and meticulous in her work, so she was appointed by Li Zicheng to protect the safety of Queen Gao. That's why it's here.

Seeing the Gao family's dress like this, Liu Fangliang secretly complained in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to think about anything, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow down: "The last general Liu Fangliang visited the queen's mother......"

"When is it, don't come to these vains." Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gao.

Liu Fangliang was a little embarrassed, hurriedly got up, and listened to Gao's ask, "Is there any news from the emperor?" ”

Liu Fangliang shook his head and said, "The last general has sent more than a dozen waves of people to look for and investigate, but most of these people have not come back since they went out. The waves that came back said that the enemy's rangers outside the city were very tightly blockaded, and as long as they went west, they couldn't get through at all. No, don't worry, your majesty will be fine. Your Majesty is also protected by General Li Yan and the Imperial Forest Army, although you are defeated for a while, but Your Majesty will definitely be safe and sound. He will continue to send people to look for His Majesty. ”

Liu Fangliang said that he didn't really believe these words, but he could only use these words to comfort the Gao family for the time being.

When Gao Shi heard this, a look of extreme disappointment appeared on his face. Even the red lady next to her was pale, she was worried about Li Yan's safety.

However, what is so good about the Gao clan that he quickly put away the disappointment on his face, and said with a straight face: "General Liu, don't say anything superfluous." The emperor has been in danger for more than ten years, and I don't know how many times he has encountered danger, and in the end, he has turned evil into good fortune, and I believe that he will be fine this time. We're going to plan for ourselves now. I don't know General Liu, do you think we can hold this Tianjin Guard? ”

After finishing speaking, she stared at Liu Fangliang with burning eyes, and the red lady also put away her gloomy color and looked at him solemnly.
